So you want someone who wants to compile KDE to download and patch gtk
stuff just to compile an executable which works fine when compiled with
mingw and downloaded as binary? Nice... are you using LFS? This would at
least explain your point.
And you really shouldn't forget all the stuff which isn't compilable or
about the confusion when someone later tries to use libpng.dll compiled
with msvc with mingw compiled executable...

I can't tell you what you should too but it would be far much better
trying to fix things inside KDE instead thinking about how to compile
something that already works.
